Today I was shooting the 11.5" 5.56 SBR at 210 yards at a 3" circle plate with XM193 (55gr) ammo. I am still getting my feet wet when it comes to tripod shooting. What was interesting is my standing position was more stable than kneeling with the tripod. My tripod setup is a PIG 0311 with a pint sized game changer. I even put a small rear bag on my right leg above my knee and put my right tricep on the bag and still seemed like a good bit of wobble compared to standing.
I am a right handed shooter. My left knee was down, right knee up, support bag on right knee holding right elbow. The rear bag I was using (crosstac with light fill) seemed less stable than just resting my right tricep onto my right knee. I played around with putting my right elbow inside my right leg but that was also less stable. I just found it interesting that my standing was more stable than kneeling with the tripod. What says the hide?
